<div dir="ltr">Just to tag along with this discussion:<div><br></div><div style>Regardless of how one may feel about scrum, or agile processes in open source development, I think there may be significant merit to the view that Trello is giving to Marconi's Havana blueprints. Not to beat up on Launchpad, but I never get a very clear view of what is going on in Glance when I look at our blueprints page. For example, some possible states for a launchpad blueprint seem absurd to me, like a blueprint "under discussion" being prioritized or targeted for a milestone. As another example, its very hard to reject a blueprint--the only similar options are obsolete, superceded, and marking as "Not" a priority, none of which clearly express that the blueprint should not be implemented in any form.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>It's definitely the case that more work needs to go into maintaining Glance's blueprint backlog. But I still wonder if something like Trello might have an appropriate role to play in our development process by representing the pipeline that transforms ideas into specified, approved, and targeted blueprints.</div>
